Finally had the chance to retake ICND2 today after my narrow failure a few weeks ago (818/825!) and scored 930! I'm super pumped - it's been a long journey starting around Christmas of 2012, so glad it's done!
I found the test to be pretty formidable - I've seen quite a few people say ICND1 was harder but I have to disagree, ICND2 was much more challenging for me. It really requires a deep, in depth knowledge of how the processes work. I found ACL's to be particularly challenging, that's where I scored low on both attempts.
I used Odom's book, CBT Nuggets and Trainsignal.
I'm thinking of taking a brief hiatus from cert studies for a while - I think it's been a long time coming!
